Sword and Scale Episode 96

Sword and Scale Episode 96

There’s a lot that can go wrong in this organ we call the human brain, which we don’t fully understand. It’s important for all of us to be much more aware of the red flags so that we can prevent tragedies like this one from happening.

We examine this phenomenon of “Gangstalking” and “Targeted Individuals” and the case of a young lawyer named Myron May. We’re joined by graduate professor of forensic psychology Dr. Vanessa Holtgrave.

Well-organized? This podcast is incorrect and showcasing a level of bias about this movement within one minute flat. Perhaps there is an interesting point of view presented in certain regards but it’s unfortunate to see another media outlet be wrong. We live in a digital world that is hyper connected along with hyper technology and a person is not able to comprehend how or why anyone would place anyone under surviellance. What about robberies? What about debt collectors? What about racketeering? The inaccurate conclusion that this podcast makes only allows criminal activity to thrive under the radar and without enforcement. We are in the midst of a neo-criminal revolution and this podcast missed all the big points and in fact belittled it. It’s a damn shame.

You and your organisation do immense harm to others and keep people from seeking the help they need.

Conrad Klug

Only as much harm as an organization who spreads awareness of cancer happens to make crazy people think that they may actually have cancer. Gangstalking is serious stuff.

So explain how any car passing this person that doesn’t turn down it’s bright lights is part of a conspiracy…The whole thing fails the conspiracy test. The larger the conspiracy 1) the harder it is to hide and 2) the more money (profit) must be involved. Real criminal enterprises of this scope MAKE MONEY from this and yet we ALL are very aware of it, due to the sheer number of people who have been caught up in it. See: IRS Scammers – everyone of us has been a potential victim or actual victim and the profit margin is clear. Your conspiracy fails the test and similar to those who glorify the columbine shooters, you are spreading poison.

Conrad Klug

My conspiracy? Don’t put words in my mouth before even understanding criminal targeting. What you described is something called “brighting.” It’s an intimidation and harassment technique and just like any tactic is not always used. So don’t assume that it always is. However when it is used its like this. Imagine you’ve lost at a sporting bet of $100,000. You now owe a loan shark a large amount of money. As a form of intimidation, cheap goons or even community watch groups (using lies and rumors as inticement) are sent to turn on their brights everytime they pass you. Knowing this is an odd behavior and also that you owe a mobster money; more than likely your gonna start getting scared and start thinking about paying that debt. For the total cost of a couple dime bags being thrown to some goons or the cost of spreading a rumor. Don’t be a fool on a criminology website and open your mouth sounding like you have no idea how the world works. These are real life problems.

Jigabachi

A loan shark won’t be ambiguous, they will tell you flat-out to your face that you owe them money and that they want it.

What you describe is call apophenia, the perception that unrelated events are somehow connected. You’re also quite the narcissist if you think the US government is going through this time and expense to have numerous (and expensive) government agents who spend part of their days/nights setting up complex traffic routes just so they can keep their brights on while they drive past you and hope that you get the message.

The US government going threw this expense…? Where do you get this craziness? Are you feeling alright? When did stopgangstalking.org say anything about gangstalking being a government program? It’s not. Gangstalking is a type of stalking and criminal targeting.

Selling swag? You mean like how most any other political movement sells swag? Like how I can buy swag for cancer, autism or adoption awareness? Sounds like professionalism to me. I’ve put in more of a financial contribution towards Stop Gangstalking Awareness Group then I’ve even come close to receiving in donations and swag sold.

You should be ashamed of your ignorance and level of assumption. Go study criminology and organized crime before commenting on a podcast.

@conradklug:disqus Thank goodness for your insight and willingness to speak out. It always amazes me how blind people can be to things happening around them every day. Unfortunately sometimes no matter how much truth some people are confronted with or educated about they will never be able to open their minds to it.

Brian Carrol

yikes, someone got into my account at work, sorry about that!

AgentBaa

How do they know they are passing you? Your conspiracy theories fail the most basic shit tests, of which I have explained in other comments here. You realize car lights can appear to dim and bright as a car goes up and down bumps correct? You realize car lights automatically adjust with computers these days correct? You have nothing but an appeal to ignorance and insults at me to back your fear mongering.

Found it: The Ultimate Conspiracy Debunker.

Basic logic.

I’m disappointed too, but I’m not surprised — The New York Times did the same thing.

Levi Healey-Furniss

Anyone counting how many times he said targeted individual….

okydokythen

That drove me crazy!! I started to feel like I was a targeted individual being harassed by his over use of the phrase targeted individual. Arghhhhh

MisterHeresy

Mike mentioned how the sense of “self importance” plays into his condition. In this case, it isn’t obvious like many other cases such as the one portrayed in the movie “a Beautiful Mind”. Myron seemed to only attain that self importance when he decided to retaliate for the benefit of mankind. He saw himself as someone being treated like one of many many lab rats. Maybe just randomly selected just like MK ULTRA would select someone off the street. It’s really the opposite of self importance as they don’t really care personally about him, they just fuck with him just to see what will happen. It’s more like alienation.

Caitlin Davis

This is where I went to school, and spent many many late nights in this library. I was there when this happened, and remember it vividly. This episode gave me chills the entire time, and this was a very accurate description of what happened that night. Now I know the back story behind Myron May. I have attached an image I made when this happened. Thank you for the job well done on this episode, Mike.

The accents are unpleasant, but the people can’t help that. Interesting story.

Monica Petersens death was suspicious. She was investigating human trafficking in Haiti and then suddenly hung herself. Michael Hastings was a journalist whose death via a car crash is also worth looking into as is DNC staffer Seth Richs death. Remember Alexander Litvinenko and polonium poisoning.

Hi.imnicole

So who do I contact if I know someone who is exhibiting similar… I don’t know, symptoms, I guess? I want to remain anonymous as this person believes anyone trying to help them is “out to get them”.

Brian

lol “24mg of ADD medication is excessive” there’s people prescribed to 180mg daily. The FDA says 120mg daily is fine. I’ve been prescribed to 60mg per day for over 20 years now. Spreading bad information.
